I want thumbnails to appear on a new tab so i can choose which site to go to instead of navigating through drop menus on my bookmarks

I have vision problems and I have been using Google Chrome. I want to switch to Firefox...but I need for when I open a new tab, large thumbnails show to certain sites I regularly visit. When I hit on the thumbnail that will take me to that site. Then if i want to open another tab, those same thumbnails show again and I can just click to where i want to go. These thumbnails show up everytime I open a new tab making it easier for me to go where I want without having to navigate through the bookmark drop down menus or remember certain keystrokes. Is there an app for this?

I used to have it with google bar, but now with Firefox 5 it doesn't work anymore =(

I tried with NewTabKing http://www.newtabking.com/ and until now it works pretty nice =)

Also I found NewTab JumpStart https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/new-tab-jumpstart/ that is similar to Google's Chrome new tab feature.


I have tried both NewTabKing and NewTab JumpStart and I prefer the first one.
